Customer Service through Bank of American should be renamed Customer Disservice. The Bank offers absolutely no flexibility with people who live pay check to paycheck. I was never in the habit of racking up overdraft bank fees until I started regularly using Bank of America. Most banks will allow you to transfer or deposit funds to cover any overage and not assess a fee if the transfer is made same day. Not the case with Bank of America. If your account dips under even for one second and you don't catch it BAM! $35.00 late fee. I think the combined total of dips under that I made was about $28.00 over the 6 months I've banked with them. Money was all put back into the account as soon as I was allowed to transfer it (an issue I'll address in a moment). That $28.00 has resulted in over $490.00 in fees. I feel like I have been raped by that bank! For people that live paycheck to paycheck this is NOT the bank for you! I was drawn in by the supposed ease of online banking but there are no atms or physical bank branches in my area. I cannot even deposit money through another bank's atm (bank of america doesn't allow it).in order to transfer funds from another account online there is a TWO day window. Which means even if I WERE to catch an overdraft before it happens there is no way I could actually get the funds into the account without driving over 100 miles to the closest branch. Some banks offer real customer service. Use one of those. DON'T use Bank of America.
